This week's book pick is Hot Lunch by Alex Bradley.
Cassie and Molly couldn't be more different. Molly is a blue-haired, ornery, self-described loner. Her idea of a good time is to be left in peace. Cassie is overly perky and friendly, and in Molly's opinion, just way too nice. But when they get in a food fight in the cafeteria and their punishment is to take over the school's hot lunch, Cassie and Molly better find a way to get along - and fast. According to the principal, there's no getting out of the kitchen until they do.
Check out these new books on the young adult bookshelf:
A La Carte by Tanita S. Davis
Hot Lunch by Alex Bradley
Hot, Sour, Salty, Sweet by Sherri L. Smith
This week's book pick is November Blues by Sharon Draper.
November Nelson has just had one of the horrible things happen that you could imagine - her boyfriend, Josh, has died after a pledge deed went extremely awry. If that wasn't enough, November discovers a few months later that she's pregnant with Josh's baby. At the same time, Josh's cousin Jericho is consumed with grief for Josh. He was there that fateful night, and just knows he should have done something to prevent what happened. Will November find the strength she needs to make the difficult choices she must make? Will Jericho move past his grief and be able to be there for November? Find out in November Blues.
